New York Yankees' Jorge Posada reacts after grounding out in the eighth inning in what could be his last at bat as a Yankee in Game 5 against the Detroit Tigers in their MLB American League Division Series baseball playoffs at Yankee Stadium in New York, October 6.

After the game, Posada was emotional, but non-committal about his future, as his four-year, $52 million contract came to an end.

“I don’t want to look at it like that,” Posada said. “We lost, and we’ll see what happens in the off-season.”

The long-time Yankee catcher has played in nearly 2,000 games for New York. During that stretch, the Yankees won five World Series championships. Posada is part of a team that is not as young as it used to be.

Starting pitcher C.C. Sabathia has an escape clause in his contract. Now that he has 3,000 hits, Derek Jeter may decide to retire. And Alex Rodriguez can't seem to stay on the field long enough to help the club.
